Real Estate Appraiser Statute of Limitations
May 2022
In the recent legislative session, the Wisconsin Legislature created a statute of limitations for real estate appraisers. Actions against real estate appraisers should be commenced within 5 years or be barred. This limitation applies to actions against real estate appraisers to recover damages based on tort, contract or other legal theories. The new limitation is codified under Wis. Stat. 893.895.
